We were big fans in 1974 ! OMG.....50 years ago.......I was 21..Thanks for the memory ❤❤❤
1974 was a bad year although I was very young. The Vikings lost to the Dolphins in the Super Bowl. And I think Dennis Rader committed his first murders right afterwards. Maybe Nixon resigned too. And gas prices doubled overnight, I think from 25 cents a gallon to 50 although I wasn’t paying so I can’t remember exactly. I just remember my dad swearing up a storm when he had to fill a 30-gallon tank. But seriously I was very young so my memory is pretty hazy.
I was 14 Big Rare Earth fan

All these years I never knew Rare Earth sang Big John Is My Name… it was constantly played on the R&B radio stations.
Rare Earth was FULL UP with top notch musicians - love this groovy - super funky band !!! Makes me wanna dance !!! 🎉 Can You GET DOWN? 🎉🎉
I have always loved this band so much, and so many people have never heard them. These guys ROCK!!
Another underrated band....awesome group
Saw Rare Earth (minus Peter Rivera) in the old Holiday Inn in Midland, Michigan back in June of 1993. Then I saw & met Peter Rivera during the "Classic Rock All Stars" concert at the Midland County Fairgrounds in Midland, MI back in August of 2005. The song "Big John Is My Name" almost reminds me of The Jackson 5 song "Whatever You Got, I Want" also from 1974.
Nothing better than watching n listening to this great Beautiful music n performance
Spectacular!!
Oh man I enjoyed that, them guys got it.
My favorite band growing up. Had it on 8 track tape lol.
Saw these guys at the world of wheels car show in Denver, Colorado back about 1985. What a treat after listening to them for many years on the radio.

Another great Norman Whitfield composition!
Production by Norman Whitfield,rip
I don’t really remember these guys since I was really young and it wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. But they seem to have this “controlled chaos” thing going on that’s interesting. I don’t know their history but they have some elements of New Orleans sounds to me. I went there once and had one too many Hurricanes. I luckily walked back safely to my hotel near Bourbon Street though.
Check out funky black man
They were the first white group to ever be signed by Motown Records. !!
Is that Bob Ross playing a happy little guitar?
Get ready por favor en esa calidad.
The guy on the bass looks a heck of a lot like the one and only Skunk. Although he's a bit too tall i think.
Bass player is mike
I didn’t know Gary Mule Deer was the lead guitarist for Rare Earth… 😂😂😂
Can we get one of gordon lightfoot
“Rare Earth.” I suppose if these guys had been born, oh, 40 years later or so, they might’ve not become musicians and instead worked for Tesla.
Mel Smith on drums and vocals
I can't stand this new RUclips layout ! Get rid of it YT !
I second!
